Electric power transmission
Electric power transmission, a process in the delivery of
electricity to consumers, is the bulk transfer of electrical power. Typically, power transmission is between the
power plant and a
substation near a populated area.
Electricity distribution is the delivery from the substation to the consumers. Electric power transmission allows distant energy sources (such as
hydroelectric power plants) to be connected to consumers in population centers, and may allow exploitation of low-grade fuel resources that would otherwise be too costly to transport to generating facilities.
